SURVEY: What is Deceleration?

on May 1, 2020

We’ve been doing an awful lot of livestreaming since we joined the viral sequestering a few weeks ago. Maybe you’ve noticed.

Eight broadcasts, with dozens of interviews, guest poets and musicians, news updates (COVID-related and otherwise), action alerts, all made possible by a whole lot of plugging and unplugging of decades-old lamps and work lights and tripods.

We’ve livestreamed more than our share of endless-feeling meetings. But this exercise has been different. Maybe this is intimacy fatigue kicking in, but in the midst of all this spreading of solidarity and encouragement has emerged the question: Is this Deceleration?

We’re not even sure we’re the right ones to answer that question. So we’re asking you. Please take two minutes and let us know what you think.
